  3. Student Launch Initiative AIAA OC Section Finalized Vehicle – Black Brant

  4. Student Launch Initiative AIAA OC Section Finalized Vehicle – Black Brant

  5. Student Launch Initiative AIAA OC Section Cesaroni K635 Redline

  6. Student Launch Initiative AIAA OC Section Motor Selection

  7. Student Launch Initiative AIAA OC Section Parachute and Descent Rates • Rocket mass = 221.65 oz • Drogue chute diameter = 24 in. • Main chute diameter = 84 in. • Calculated projected velocity for each chute with online calculator and by hand • v2 = 2FD / (ρ)(CD)(A) • CD = 1.00 • FD = mg = (6.285 kg)(9.8 m/s2) • Hand: vdrogue= 60.99 ft/s Online: vdrogue = 68.57 ft/s • Hand: vmain= 17.43 ft/s Online: vmain= 19.59 ft/s

  8. Student Launch Initiative AIAA OC Section Dual Deployment • Electronics: MAWD Perfect Flight, HCX G-Wiz Partners • The electronics will “back” one another up incase one pyro (either drogue or main) does not fire. • Drogue Parachute will be deployed at apogee • Main Parachute will be deployed at 900ft • The electronics have been tested four tests have been done: • Christmas tree light test • Vacuum Chamber test • First flight in the scale rocket (MAWD Only) • Second Flight in scale model (MAWD Only)

  9. Student Launch Initiative AIAA OC Section Dual Deployment Tests Christmas Tree Light: Vacuum Chamber: First Launch

  10. Student Launch Initiative AIAA OC Section Payload G-Wiz Partners HCX flight computer - measures acceleration of the rocket Toshiba hard drive – test subject; we will run a Linux script on the hard drive over and over again; the time the hard drive takes to run the script each time is measured Simple net computer/Linux computer – the mini computer that will execute the Linux script on the hard drive; it will be initialized by a PC; the flight data will be recorded on a flash drive inserted into this computer Power converter – Keeps a steady flow of power to the payload components

  11. Student Launch Initiative AIAA OC Section Test Plans and Procedures February 12 launch Scale model Test dual Deployment Ejection charges Full Scale model Test with modified ejection charge amount Launch Scale Model March 5 and/ or March 12

  12. Student Launch Initiative AIAA OC Section Scale Model – Black Brant

  13. Student Launch Initiative AIAA OC Section Scale Model – Black Brant

  14. Student Launch Initiative AIAA OC Section Scale Model Second Flight

  15. Student Launch Initiative AIAA OC Section Flight Analysis After watching the flight we knew there was some faults:

  16. Student Launch Initiative AIAA OC Section Testing • All the testing we have done is to help ensure that our rocket is safe • Testing that has been done includes: • Black Powder • Battery Life • GPS Range • Scale Model Launch

  17. Student Launch Initiative AIAA OC Section Testing – Black Powder The table below shows the testing our team has done with black powder charges. How we did the testing was by assembling the rocket as we normally would but through the pressure hole

  18. Student Launch Initiative AIAA OC Section Testing – Battery Life

  19. Student Launch Initiative AIAA OC Section Testing – GPS Range Our team first let the electronics connect to satellites, once it had done that then we started to walk away from the transceiver (big red bee beeline) and saw how far it would transmit while being in the rocket.

  20. Student Launch Initiative AIAA OC Section Educational Outreach Cloverdale 4-H club Girl Scouts workshop Presentations to Sunny Hills High School Science classes to get involved Help out ABC Unified School District with their annual Science Olympics Articles published/ will be published in the Orange County Register, The Foothill Sentry, and the Sunny Hills High School Accolade We have contacted the Discovery Center to participate in their Youth Booth In the process of contacting corporations regarding fundraising
